Spinel is a captivating gemstone known for its wide range of colors, from rich reds and pinks to blues, purples, and even colorless varieties. It’s often mistaken for other gemstones, particularly ruby, due to its vibrant red hues, but spinel is a distinct mineral with its own unique properties. Composed of magnesium aluminum oxide, spinel ranks 8 on the Mohs hardness scale, making it durable enough for various types of jewelry.
Unlike many gemstones, spinel is singly refractive, giving it a clear, brilliant sparkle without the need for additional treatments or enhancements. This natural radiance and clarity have made it increasingly popular among gem enthusiasts and collectors. Red and blue spinels are particularly rare and valuable, with the finest stones rivaling rubies and sapphires in beauty and intensity.
Spinel is also associated with qualities like rejuvenation, inspiration, and vitality. Its vibrant color and luster bring a refreshing elegance to jewelry pieces, making it an exceptional choice for those seeking a unique yet durable gemstone.

Why are users outbidding themselves?
When a bid is placed, this is the maximum amount a person is willing to bid for the product. Our system will then automatically bid on behalf of the bidder, incrementally increasing the bid up to the maximum to maintain their position as the highest bidder.
When there is an icon indicating 'Automatic Bid', it means our system is actively placing bids for the bidder based on their maximum bid. This may appear as if bidders are outbidding themselves, but it's simply a result of the system updating the bid to reflect the bidders maximum limit.
